Here we are. Another Monday morning. That’s about all you can say about it – it is Monday. In case you missed the updates on social media, I’m coming off of a weekend spent up in the hills of middle Tennessee around Center Hill Lake. The guys got together and rented a cabin for my bachelor party (don’t judge me – I’m 35 and can’t go as hard as I did 10 years ago). I wish I could say I’m coming back to the routine feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, but since I’ve apparently aged 50 years in the last 10, I’m feeling beat up and worn down because we decided to throw a Nerf football around the property. You know what probably wouldn’t have twisted up every ligament in each knee? If instead we decided to whip out the massive pottery wheel and take a stab at making one gigantic bowl.
why are you as a man not making an enormous bowl with 3 strong guys?? pic.twitter.com/CorfWlBOGV

I need more. I need an update on this video. Does anyone on the internet have a photo of how this thing turned out? If so, please email it to thesobrosnetwork@gmail.com. The world deserves to see it. That thing looks like it could challenge the world’s largest bowl in the Guinness Book of Ripley’s Believe it or Not or whatever that thing is called. I’m saying that without knowing the first thing about the largest bowl in the world – full transparency – but, hyperbole has never stopped me from writing a post before.
I had never really stopped to think of the size limitations of modern pottery, but now, after seeing this video making the rounds everywhere, it has me wondering why stop here. Why not get an even bigger pottery wheel? Why not make an even bigger bowl and get even more dudes involved? You could theoretically make a bowl big enough that you could flip upside down and live inside it. Then, none of us would have to worry about the rising cost of housing here in Nashville, Tennessee. Big brain shit.
I think this would be an excellent team-building exercise, though. Can you imagine you and your friends having to get together and figure this thing out? Even if you do know what you’re doing, you’d all have to be 100% on your game. One little slip of the finger can really back things up (there’s a “that’s what she said” joke in there somewhere). It takes immaculate teamwork.
While I may be feeling sore this morning because I’m a huge piece of shit, this video has made me feel inspired. Carpe diem.
